Why do windows have two panes of glass separated by a layer of air

Physics
1 answer:
Soloha48 [4]3 years ago
7 0

Air is a poor conductor of heat.  The air trapped between the two panes is a pretty good <em>insulator</em>.  It does a lot to prevent heat from flowing through the windows ... keeping heat IN during the Winter, and OUT during the Summer.

F F= {mango, apple, banana, orange)​
Stels [109]

Answer:

<h3>n(F) = 4</h3>

Explanation:

Cardinality of a set is the number of elements in that set. Given the set.

F= {mango, apple, banana, orange)​, we are to determine the cardinality of the set i.e the amount of fruit present in the set. Cardinality of the set F is represented as n(F).

Since there are 4 different fruit in the given set F, hence the cardinality of the set F is n(F) = 4

What is the IMA of the following pulley system?<br><br>34567
Lynna [10]

Answer:

    IMA of given system =   \frac{F_{r} }{F_{e} }

Explanation:

  • The "Ideal Mechanical advantage" (IMA) of given pulley is \frac{F_{r} }{F_{e} } .
  • Ideal Mechanical advantage of a system is defined by the ratio of achieved or output force to the implied force. In the pulley system above, output force is the resistant force denoted by F_{r}. The input force is analogous or equivalent to the effort applied i.e. F_{e} .
  • Hence by dividing these two forces we calculate the IMA of the above mentioned pulley system which is  \frac{F_{r} }{F_{e} } .
  • Its mathematical reference would be:

                                                IMA =   \frac{F_{r} }{F_{e} }

A child on a bridge throws a rock straight down to the water below. The point where the child released the rock is 82 m above th
eimsori [14]

Answer:

40 m/s

Explanation:

given,

height of the fall, h = 82 m

time taken to fall, t = 1.3 s

rock velocity, v = ?

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

rock is released initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

using equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 a s

v² = 0 + 2 x 9.8 x 82

v² = 1607.2

v = 40 m/s

hence, rock's velocity is equal to 40 m/s

A speedboat is approaching a dock at 25 m/s (56 mph). When the dock is 150 m away, the driver begins to slow down. a) What accel
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

a) -2.038 m/s²

b) 40.33 mph

c) 312.5 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{0^2-25^2}{2\times 150}\\\Rightarrow a=-2.083\ m/s^2

Acceleration of the boat is -2.083 m/s² if the boat will stop at 150 m.

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times -1\times 150+25^2}\\\Rightarrow v=18.03\ m/s

Speed of the boat by when it will hit the dock is 18.03 m/s

Converting to mph

1\ mile=1609.34\ m

1\ h=3600\ seconds

18.03\times \frac{3600}{1609.34}=40.33\ mph

Speed of the boat by when it will hit the dock is 40.33 mph

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-25^2}{2\times -1}\\\Rightarrow s=312.5\ m

The distance at which the boat will have to start decelerating is 312.5 m
